We are a multi-disciplinary organization comprised of architects, urban planners, developers, investors, engineers, academics, elected and career governmental officials, and citizen advocates. We work within and outside of our professions to further the organization’s mission. CNU Florida, a charitable 501(c)(3) corporation, is CNU’s oldest chapter.
